StrokeIt

Submit portable freeware that you find here. It helps if you include information like description, extraction instruction, Unicode support, whether it writes to the registry, and so on.

StrokeIt

#1 Post by iMartyr »

it's a mouse gesture program, i just saw it on another forum and thought some people here might like to give it a look.

Nah, not portable. Settings are written to the registry.

Andrew, maybe you could put a sticky at the top of this forum topic with the list of popular software, known not to be portable at this moment in time. (Some people might arrive directly at the forum without first checking the main website).

Yeah, you're right. It will get messy as the number of sticky messages becomes longer. I actually have a page for non-portable software. Maybe I will just add a sticky note to point to that page instead.

Did you create a blank strokeit.ini file in the app directory?

I searched my Registry for StrokeIt and nothing turned up!

Yes risk, you are correct. I did not create the .ini file when I tested strokeit. Thanks for the reminder :D .
